Important Facts to know before becoming a contractor,don't leave home NOT KNOWING!

When reading your contract in Houston, make no mistake, SEII is the actual company you will be working for; NOT KBR. A shell company located in the Cayman Island.

The DBA Insurance , is nothing like AETNA or Blue Cross Blue shield. It protects the company and insurance company from having to pay your medical bills if you get injured in Iraq or abroad. The law read differently, but then again, look at the cases... OH thats right, the AOLJ court cases. I'm sure KBR didn't mention that to you! The DBA (Defense Base Act) allows contractors a free attorney, well maybe?And free medical, well if the insurance will approve it. It also allows Insurance companies to deny your medical for 3 or more years.Keep in mind no one is overseaing how injured contractors are being treated.

As for as Convoy Drivers keep in mind the military rules of engagment, if you don't know them ASK for the military book, or you could be in Iraq stuck on a sandy road being shot at by insurgents and no one around to save your ass.

IN A NUT SHELLAmericans going to work for KBR in Iraq are not going as employees of KBR. See Contract on the left.....

KBR Tech. Services is a Head Hunter for SEII (Service Employers Int. Inc.) See doc.which is a subsidiary of Halliburton located in the Cayman Islands. (See doc.)

July 9, 2008, 10:36PMIraq blast killed 3 KBR employees

WASHINGTON — Three KBR employees in Iraq were killed and as many as 13 others were injured early this week when an armored passenger bus traveling near Mosul struck a roadside bomb, company officials confirmed Wednesday.

The bus, carrying 34 passengers, was traveling between Qayyarah Airfield West and Camp Diamondback in Mosul on Monday when it is believed to have hit a large improvised explosive device, said Heather Browne, a spokeswoman for the Houston-based military contracting giant.

Citing the families' privacy, KBR would not provide any other details about the victims.

A military spokeswoman for the Multi-National Force Iraq declined to discuss the incident beyond saying that four people in all were killed and eight were injured. KBR said the fourth fatality was not one of its employees.

The discrepancy in the KBR and military injury counts could not be reconciled Wednesday.

To date, 87 KBR workers have been killed and 849 wounded by hostile action in Iraq. The company has not said how many were Americans.

BAGHDAD -- An American soldier was killed Tuesday when a roadside bomb struck his vehicle west of Baghdad, the U.S. military said.

The military also announced the deaths of four "private contractors in a similar attack Monday in northern Iraq."

Eight contractors were injured in that bombing, which occurred about 15 miles south of the city of Mosul.

WASHINGTON — The military is racing to inspect more than 90,000 U.S.-run facilities across Iraq to reduce a deadly threat troops face far off the battlefield: electrocution or shock while showering or using appliances.About one-third of the inspections so far have turned up major electrical problems, according to interviews and an internal military document obtained by The Associated Press. Half of the problems they found have since been fixed but about 65,000 facilities still need to be inspected, which could take the rest of this year. Senior Pentagon officials were on Capitol Hill this week for briefings on the findings.

Iraq war veteran, and former California Army National Guardsman Sgt. Ron Vance, is seen at his in Fresno, Calif., home Tuesday, Feb. 25, 2009. The electric shock that ripped through Vance's body while showering at a U.S. base in Taji, Iraq, in August 2004 knocked him unconscious. Vance said he didn't feel the military took the incident seriously: "It wasn't a priority on their list. It was like, he's fine. He's alive. He's OK." (AP Photo/Gary Kazanjian) - AP
